Texas #2 among the Top 10 States to find a job in America

If ever a state was a jobs juggernaut, it’s Texas, which has shaken off its traditional reliance on energy to create an economy that is diverse — Texas-size. The proof has come with the recent decline in oil prices. While some were predicting a repeat of the oil shocks of the ’80s, Texas took up the slack with gains in health care and information technology. Oil is still the state’s lifeblood, but Texas seems ready for whatever the economy can throw at it.
